Head Start Services

Today, research shows the significant benefits early childhood development and education have on children. It tells us that children enrolled in a high-quality early childhood education program are more likely to do better on tests, graduate from high school and attend college.

ESC Region 19 Head Start promotes the well-being and school readiness of children from birth to age five by enhancing their cognitive, social, and emotional development in a comprehensive manner.

Head Start services focus on the whole child by emphasizing the role of parents as their child's first teacher and by ensuring their well-being and healthy development. The program provides enriching learning environments that build children's foundation for reading, math, science and academics.
